dahyun
"dahyun, please stop!"
"no! don't hurt me!"
these voices bounced around in my head as i stood still in the middle of the room.
you know those moments when you have no idea what was going on around you? when everything in front of you seemed to move in slow motion?
that was exactly how i felt watching kai jump over the window to his death.
a cry escaped my mouth and a second later, rose and the others rushed into the room. rose saw the bed empty and the window wide open. her eyes widened as she ran to the window, looking down.
"kai!!" she screamed, seeing his dead body splatted on the ground below. people on the ground screamed at the sight. rose had tears in her eyes and started crying into her hands. ray followed and looked at the sight, covering his mouth in shock. jimin was also in there, looking down with wide eyes. he looked back at me as i stood motionless by the bed.
"what happened?" he asked loud enough so everyone could hear. i didn't respond, just stood there trying to process everything. rose was madly crying, ray was looking at me
"what happened, dahyun! d-don't tell me you-"
"no. don't you even say it, jimin. i didn't do anything," i said quietly, not letting him finish those words.
"then what happened, he just jumped out the window because he felt like it?" he asked a little louder. i was about to reply when the voices in my head started screaming once again.
"dahyun! stop! no!"
those voices...they sounded so familiar like i knew the people that were screaming. it was bone chilling to hear those words. they sounded so terrified like they are on the verge of death.
"dahyun!" jimin yelled at me and reality kicked back in. i forgot he had asked me a question.
"you better tell us the fucking truth right now..." he spoke as his eyes stared me down.
everything at that point was starting to overwhelm me. one, kai was dead. two, these voices didn't stop screaming in my head. and three, jimin was yelling at me.
at that point, everything was going to shit and i couldn't take it anymore. jimin kept yelling at me but it started getting inaudible. i couldn't hear him anymore because the screams in my head were getting louder and louder.
in the midst of all the screaming in my head, one person stood out from all the rest.
my heart dropped into my stomach.
it was taehyung.
i could hear him screaming my name over and over again.
"dahyun! please, stop! dahyun! no!!"
why...why taehyung? i would never hurt him...i would never hurt anyone. where were all these people coming from?
my vision started unfocusing, things started to blur. i could barely see jimin anymore. he was saying something to rose and ray. when he looked back at me, goosebumps started rising on my skin as he started walking towards me.
a memory suddenly flashed across my eyes. a man was approaching me the same way jimin was. his mouth was moving but i couldn't hear him.
i could barely see him mouth these words.
"be a good girl now.."
then i was back into reality. the moment jimin touched my arm, i couldn't take it anymore.
darkness consumed me once again and i fell unconscious.
three hours later
it was as if i came back alive. my eyes opened and i was back in ray's apartment. my heart was beating at a normal pace and my body felt relaxed.
"you're awake."
i slightly jumped out of my skin as a voice spoke behind me. i looked to see jimin, standing by the door with a towel in his hand.
"you feeling better?" he asked in a dull tone, sitting down beside me on the bed. i just looked at him, not moving. i avoided his question and asked in a hushed voice, "what happened? why are we here?"
"well, after your dumb ass fainted again, i brought you back here," he said while looking at me.
i looked away, getting too intimidated by his stare.
"where's rose and ray?" i said, almost in a whisper.
"they're still at the hospital. they told me the police was coming right before you fainted. that's why i took you away from there. if it weren't for me, the police definitely would have taken you."
i kept quiet, not knowing what to say. i turned my head to look at him. there was some weird fluttering feeling in my stomach as i stared into his eyes. it always happened whenever we stared into each other's eyes.
jimin was a hard person to understand. he always confused me. one minute he insulted me behind my back, then the next minute he'd save me from the police. he was either hot or cold, nothing in between.
"thank you," i softly spoke.
he also stayed quiet. our eyes just stayed locked with each other. there was a new feeling between us that i've never seen before.
jimin finally broke the silence. he said, "i think we need to talk. properly. without any yelling or accusing...let's just talk. okay?"
"yeah...you're right, let's talk."
he nodded and exhaled deeply.
"i'm just going to be straight up and ask..."
i held my breath as i waited for his question.
"why did you leave me in jeju island?"
